‘Adaptive RT’: How it all started
…and follow-up papers
Reductions in LRR
with systemic therapy are
reported in studies with and those without RT, but the
magnitude of the reduction appears to be
greater
with the combination
of systemic therapy and RT
than with systemic therapy alone.
The survival benefits
of achieving local control documented in
the EBCTCG meta-analysis are of similar magnitude or greater
than those accepted by patients for systemic therapy, yet they
received considerably less attention.
